This month will reflect on the concept of "Art is Transformation”. How the creative process help us to transform our inner and outer world? How do we help shape our own reality through transformative art? This and more questions will be discuss on the night as well as exploring how our guests artists have approached this concepts on their practise.

Elizabeth Sandford Richardson / Apple Tart is a light based media artist working in a range of mediums: Experimental darkroom photography ‘Performergrams,’ Lenticulars, Digital Holography and Live Performance. The practice uses the concept of photography with focus on using holography and lenticulars performativity. She explores the notion of what can be seen as a performance space.

Fine artist Luciana Haill works creatively with neurotechnologies, digital media, performance, sound and drawing. Her artworks are research-led, and develop following encounters and (where possible) training with the pioneers in her field. Her works focus on Lucid Dreaming and Hypnagogia, investigating the neural correlates, suggesting and stimulating the surreal psychophenomenological characteristics preceding an Altered State of Consciousness, and interviewing participants about their experiences.
